    gary coleman is the youngest of the 3 star childs from the hit show 'Different Strokes' which went from 1978 to 1986. Back then, gary coleman and his star brother were as popular as michael jackson. Each of these kids were raking in $30k a week, a huge sum back then. Because of kidney problem and other health issue, gary never grew to normal height. All three of these star childs self destruct after their show got cancelled. The public still see them as the kids from that show and can't remove from that, plus lacking normal schooling, they get exploited by everybody and they themselves made lotta bad life choices. Some even think there's a curse on them. Dana Plato, playing sister Kimberly, constantly on drugs and eventually died around 34??. Gary's brother Willis (Todd bridges) on the show also got on drugs and constantly in and out of jail. Todd seem to manage to change his life around and he wrote a bio titled 'killing Willis' about his life after the tv hit show. And of course, Gary coleman already have health problem without the drugs. He married to ?? Price but don't think they have any children. Gary did ran for the job of California's governor but Arnold the 'Terminator turn Governator' schwarzenegger won. Gary's name on that tv show was Arnold Jackson. How can people forget a name like that, Arnold schwarzenegger + Michael Jackson. As Arnold Jackson, gary coined the famous phrase "What choo talkin 'bout, Willis?" which i had borrowed couple of times already:D
